Occupational Projections and Training Data 2004-2005 (United States)
January 19, 2023
Preface
This statistical and research supplement to the 2004–05 Occupational Outlook Handbook presents detailed, comprehensive statistics that are used in preparing the Handbook. In discussing how the data are prepared and other topics, the supplement offers information that is valuable to training officials, education planners, vocational and employment counselors, jobseekers, and others interested in occupational information. This edition of the supplement is the 17th in a series dating back to 1971.
Chapter I introduces a new analytical product that describes the educational attainment distribution of 25- to 44- year-olds for each of the detailed national employment matrix occupations, based on data drawn from the Current Population Survey (CPS). This new information presents an improved picture of entry paths for national employment matrix occupations and complements information provided since 1994 on the most significant single source of postsecondary education or training. Occupations are grouped into broad education clusters on the basis of their educational attainment distributions. Occupations within each cluster that are relatively high-wage and projected to have highemployment growth are identified and the contribution of each occupation to total projected employment change is measured.
